It's hard to believe that I'm already on my last semester. Freshman year feels like just yesterday. I've seen and done so much so far and I know I have much more to come. Let's hope I can get through this without succumbing too badly to Senioritis!
I've very excited for my classes:
Sexuality and Power in Antiquity (SAPIA)
Modern Japan
Europe in the Inter-War Years (my capstone)
Anthropology
Japanese 102
The first three are all history classes, the Anthro satisfies a science requirement I need, and I;m continuing Japanese just for fun.
So, I went to Japanese and SAPIA today and then went and picked up my books at the bookstore. When they grabbed my order they were amazed that I had so many books. The girl counted them all and totaled 16 (but I counted when I got home and there's only 14). She was amazed and I told her simply that I'm a history major and that we read a lot. And she asked if I would have to read all of those books this semester, to which I replied with a "yup". She and the workers helping her apparently had no idea that someone could be required to read so much and they continued to freak out until I left.
All of these books look fascinating, so maybe that will motivate me to do more than skim this semester!
